Bernard Nana, Garima Raheja, Issoufou Ouarma, Haro Kayaba, Woro Yomi Gounkaou, Tizane Daho, Antoine Béré, Abdelwahid Mellouki, Daniel M. Westervelt
Air pollution causes more than 8.34 million premature deaths worldwide. Most of these deaths occur in the Global South, particularly in Africa. However, the means of observing this air pollution in these countries are lacking. Knowledge of pollutant concentration levels and their distribution in time and space is inadequate or nonexistent in m(...)

SYNTHESIS OF A HYBRID NANOMATERIAL COMBINING SILVER NANOPARTICLES WITH WATER-SOLUBLE ZINC PHTHALOCYANINES [ZnPc(CO2H)4(COATP)4@AgNPs]
Lassané Tarpaga, Youssoufou Bakouan, Seydou Ouédraogo, Bintou Sessouma, Mabinty Bayo-Bangoura, Catherine Amiens, Jérôme Esvan, Karifa Bayo
Phthalocyanine based hybrid nanomaterials show promises in biomedical applications. However, their lack of solubility in aqueous phase limits their development. This paper aims at bringing some answers to this problem, by reporting the synthesis of a hybrid nanomaterial consisting of new zinc phthalocyanines substituted with four carboxylic ac(...)

Nutritious Raw Soumbala Seasoning: An Alternative for Its Valorization and Acceptability
Abel Tankoano, Kabakdé Kaboré, Mariam Coulibaly-Diakité, Namwin Siourimè SOMDA, Kerbou Isabelle Somé, Amadou Rouamba, Donatien Kaboré , Aly Savadogo and Hagrétou Sawadaogo-Lingani
A healthy diet is essential for the prevention of certain diseases. Therefore, it is essential to test the formulation of unprocessed or minimally processed foods. The aim of this study was to formulate a soumbala-based food with high nutritional and nutraceutical potential. Despite its recognised nutritional and nutraceutical importance, the(...)

Statut social et perception paysanne sur les services écosystémiques dans deux zones phytogéographiques au Burkina Faso
Alexis Sompougdou, Hugues Roméo Bazié, Sibiry Albert Kaboré, Ismaîla Kinda, Idriss Sermé, and Hassan Bismarck Nacro
Les agroécosystèmes procurent de nombreux biens et services à plusieurs millions de personnes. Toutefois, au Burkina Faso, ils sont continuellement dégradés, impactant les moyens d’existence des populations rurales. L’objectif de cette étude était d’appréhender les perceptions des services écosystémiques, lesmécanismes, les approches de gestio(...)

Analysis of tuberculosis model with the impact of hospital resources
Hamadoum Dicko, Ali Traoré
A deterministic model of tuberculosis dynamics incorporating available hospital resources is formulated and studied. The model analysis reveals the existence of a disease-free equilibrium that is stable when the basic reproduction number R_0 is less than 1 and several endemic equilibria appear when R_0 is greater than 1. Two types of bifurcati(...)

L'anaphylaxie par allergie alimentaire pédiatrique en communauté nécessite une prise en charge soutenue par divers acteurs: décideurs, les agents de santé, les enseignants, les familles. L'éducation thérapeutique reste un outil accessible, efficace, et sécurisant. A ce jour, plusieurs pays ne disposent ni de registres d'anaphylaxie, ni de poli(...)

Introduction: Burkina Faso is facing a serious public health problem of chronic malnutrition and mortality in children under the age of 5. To tackle this situation, a number of child nutrition interventions have been implemented. This study aims to assess the impact of these interventions on the nutritional status of children aged 0–5 years be(...)

Phenotypic evaluation of six cassava families (Manihot esculenta Crantz) from seed in Burkina Faso
Sawadogo O. Michel, Some Koussao, Ouedraogo M. Hamed, Tiama Djakaria, Tiendrebeogo Fidèle, Soro Monique , Tonde Wendmanegda Hermann, Sawadogo Mahamadou
Phenotypic markers are important in plant genetic characterisation studies. They are used in the present study to assess the phenotypic structuring of cassava genotypes obtained by biparental crossing. The plant material studied consists of 56 cassava genotypes from the third generation of vegetative reproduction following germination of seeds(...)

The measured changes in the levels of infant and young child feeding
interventions included in this study led to a reduction in the number of cases of
chronic malnutrition in children under 6 months of age in the second scenario
projections. However, no cases of chronic malnutrition were prevented among
children in the 6–59 month age group(...)

Preliminary Report on the Paleoproterozoic Metasediments Genesis and Features of the Banfora Belt Western Burkina Faso (West Africa Craton)
Hermann Ilboudo, Bernadin Gnamou, Wilfried Antoine Bassou Toe, Marc Ephrem Allialy
Metasedimentary rocks of the Banfora belt are examined for their petrography geochemistry and genesis. The main formations are pelite metapelitessandstone, and metagraywackes. The first ones show a fine interlocking layering with unclear graded bedding in the sandstone compared to the metapelites, while the metagraywackes show a clearly disc(...)

Transition politique et veille citoyenne au Burkina Faso: les ressorts du développement d'un contrôle citoyen de la gouvernance
SAWADOGO Abdoulaye, SORÉ Zakaria et HINNOU Patrick
Le Burkina Faso, depuis 2015, subit une crise sécuritaire qui a provoqué une instabilité politique à la tête de l’État, marquée par le retour des militaires au pouvoir en janvier 2022. Dès lors, le pays est dirigé par un pouvoir politique de transition. Ce régime militaire construit sa légitimité sur la probité et sur sa capacité à inverser la(...)
